So you think you live in a bad neighbourhood…

Relocations proved… eventful. The apartment in Newark very nice, for example, but turned out to be in the no man’s land between a gang house and a crack house: 2 fatal shootings in our street in our first two weeks there. …. We’ve moved again (to Manhattan)

Makes sunny Headingley, were I used to live in Leeds, look like a golden ghetto in comparison!
